Psalm 116: 1-14

" I love the LORD, for he heard my voice; he hear my cry for mercy. Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live. The cords of death entangled me, the anguish of the grave came upon me; I was overcome by trouble and sorrow. Then I called on the name of the LORD: " O LORD, SAVE ME!" The LORD is Gracious and Righteous; our GOD is full of compassion. The LORD protects the simplehearted; when I was in Great Need, HE SAVED ME! Be at rest once more, O my soul. for the LORD has been good to you. For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling, that I may walk before the LORD in the land of the living. I believed, therefore I said, "I am getting afflicted."
And in my dismay I said, " All men are liars." How can I repay the LORD for all the goodness to me? I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD in the presence of all his people." Psalm 116:1-14

I really don't think that anyone really reads this but I keep on posting anyways. I was sitting at my computer last night... and got out my bible and decided to connect the Lord. I have some things that I KNOW I need to work on to better my relationship with God and am taking an active role starting today!!!! I have been praising him everyday and feel better and have better days when I do. Its amazing when you lay your stress at his feet what miracles can happen. I mean my miracles are alot different for some people. Some of my LIL miracles are as simple as a bill got paid, on time, and we still have money for the rest of the week in between checks. Some people think that "we" (my family) are worse off than what we are... me being one of those... NOT ANYMORE!!! My faith in the Lord has been growing everyday and lately I have been telling my self and my friends that I felt "God Sensitive" and now I know why. It was him working his love in my heart and soul. It was God telling me .... its OK to let go. Relax it is going to be FINE. Keep you family close and praise me! I am the one to depend on!!

I hope that if someone does read this that they don't think that I'm trying to say that everything is just peachy and that my family is now perfect.
FAR FROM IT! and We aren't striving to be. We know that the only one in this thing called Life that is perfect is GOD!

Anyways enough with my ramble session!!

HAVE A VERY BLESSED DAY!

I will praise HIM everyday!

Today is a day that I am yelling THANK YOU GOD!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!

A month ago I was involved in a wreck and have been driving a rental car since it happened. Yesterday we finally found out that they are totaling the car out and that they are giving us a check!!! OH MY GOODNESS!!! THANK YOU JESUS!!! Yea we have one more obstacle left, and that is fixing the car that we bought in March. It runs and I could drive it but Dave wants to make it even safer! IM ALL FOR IT!

I made a decision about 3 wks ago that is effecting my family right now and this insurance money is going to help fix the car and give us a Little cushion while I am on the job hunt. The insurance isnt a big check by ANY MEANS but any little bit helps right?

One other thing that I am praising the Lord for this week is I got a call on Easter sunday from a very nice lady who said that she had received my resume. She asked when I could come in for an interview. I went in on Monday and feel pretty confident that I stand a good chance!! My hopes arent HIGH but I am confident! My mom also found me another job that I am qualified for and so I am calling them tomorrow! I am really excited about the fact that God is leading the way with his Light shining BIG AND BRIGHT!!!

I am still looking at starting a Daycare and feel VERY STRONGLY about being a stay-at-home mom eventually when we get on our feet and can live comfortably without a paycheck coming from the both of us!!!

"THANK YOU JESUS, you are amazing and I am so thankful for the work you are doing in me and my family's lives right now! You are awesome and I just praise the work you do! Please continue to light my way and show me the direction you have intended for me and my family! One other thing that I am praying to you now is that you lead our way down the fertility path. We know that when the time is right and you feel that we are ready you will bless us with another child. David and I pray lord that you continue your work on us as a couple and as parents! We praise your name everyday Lord and ask that you work your miracle and bless us with the child that is destined to be ours. In your name I pray... Amen"

My love for him grows more and more everyday.

This blog is going to be about my wonderful husband! A few things have happened the last few days, a few things have been said and its making me appreciate what we have. I have come to realize that no one knows what "your" marriage is like but you and your husband. No one is there when he tells you how beautiful you look and how happy you make him. No one is there when he holds you and tells you not to worry. No one is here with us when we are discussing OUR family issues. My husband works his butt off everyday to support his family. He comes home and works his butt off even harder than earlier in the day. The only difference is that he loves the farm work. He is exhausted and deserves a break but will never get one because he won't take one.

" Our Story"
David and I met on a blind date, February 16, 2008. We hit it off that night and have been together ever since. We both said we wanted to take it slow but I knew that first night that i never ever wanted to lose this man. Alyson hadn't turned 2 yet and was (and still is) my best judge of character. If she doesn't like you in the beginning, she most likely never will. About 2 wks later I moved in, on Easter Sunday of 2008 he proposed. Only after asking for my fathers' permission. Then on 9-6-08 we were married. Things haven't always been roses, but I don't know that anyones life is all the time. And I think it would be quite boring if it was.
We have had some rough go's of it and I made a decision that is effecting us right now. I have the faith in God that everything is going to be alright. He has never let us down and I know that he never will. The thing that can be really tough (this is my lesson that I have to learn) is knowing that NOTHING else matters but what goes on in your house! Everything else gets dropped off at the door. The negativity that people can let in can kill a marriage and unfortunately we have ALOT of it around us right now. But I know that my husband, our daughter and I are going to be just fine as long as we keep on praying, and holding our heads high and praising the lord that we are here in this thing called life together!

I know that this was kind of a ramble session but like I said in my first post... this is going to be my outlet. The only other thing I can say is that "Everything is going to be alright, the Lord's gonna answer your prayers tonight" (Irene by Toby Mac)

God Bless
